Crow boy's

Lane and Landon came over today 



Landon is growing up so fast. He is starting to hold himself up much better. Being a preemie baby he is way behind where he should be at this point.  Hopefully with us working with him it will help him develop his muscle tone and get stronger.
These boys have been the saving grace for Papa.  Watching him with these boys makes my heart so happy.  Papa needed something in his life to keep him occupied. Am sure some days Papa is extremely tired from watching the boys.  Lane stays super busy.

Brooks

Jessica brought Brooks to Nana and Papa's around noon. He hasn't spent a lot of time at our house so he still is unsure about what he is doing with us.  He is very chill and doesn't seem to get into a lot of stuff. Although we do try to be baby/infant safe at our house. 
His favorite toys are blocks and trucks and of course balls.  He doesn't watch TV much but every now and then he will glimpse at the television.  He doesn't seem to mind entertaining himself.  Although I did get down on the floor and play with the farm set and animals.   Figured I needed to get on his level.  
What I think I need is more boy toys in my house.  I am looking at Walmart and Amazon for more building blocks and maybe a dump truck to put blocks into for the toddler boys.  I also need more farm animals as well.
Was nice to get Brooks for around 4ish hours. Gave Jessica time to go buy groceries and do a little cleaning at home.  She is having a little girl either in October/November. On top of that Blake is working out of time.  I know her parents watch and help Jessica quite a bit.  Figured I needed to extend a helping hand as well. Especially with the kids growing up so fast. 
Keeping the smalls make me so incredibly happy.  We are totally blessed.

Garage Sale 2022

Some of the items I had for the garage sale. 

Random items I found thru out the house to declutter.


Cute picture just didn't have room to put it up.

A few arts and crafts that I no longer need or plan on using.
I hadn't had a garage sale in years.  This one was a bit of a bust but still made nearly $100.00. So feel like that was okay for not planning for the sale in advance. Everything I took out of the house is remaining out of house. As soon as the sale was over at noon we loaded up everything in Jeep. Will be taking to Goodwill after work Monday.  Which gives me a great starting place to continue my declutter mission.  
I took 3 large bags and a large tote of clothes to my cousin Brenda's house.  Am sure she will pass them to others to wear.  It felt good to get stuff moved out of the house.  I really need to try to declutter more items every week.   
This garage sale wasn't a huge money maker that is for sure.  But hey it got me off my butt to get things cleared out of the house. I highly doubt that I will ever do another garage sale at my house.
